Savannah and Jimmy

This CMC bride and groom held their special day in Vernon, Florida, at the Live Oak Weddings and Events Venue.

They selected our Premium Collection for their wedding package!

This wedding was every ounce of detailed and unique.

One of the sweetest details was a beautiful heirloom passed down from the brides grandmother. The golden pocket watch was the brides’ grandfathers’, and her grandmother gifted it to her on her wedding day!

With delicate lace, flutter sleeves, and a sweetheart neckline, this bridal gown was a radiant and vintage design.

I went to high school with the Groom, so this wedding introduced me to his Bride Savannah, and we truly hit it off and honestly have so much in common! She is a beautiful person inside and out and I’m so glad I got to be a part of their wedding journey!

There’s seriously nothing more calming than the love consumed notes that the bride and groom exchange before the festivities kick off for the day.

A fun fact about this wedding day:

The entire day was rainy except for the 40 minutes for ceremony and portraits. It was just drizzling majority of that time so we were able to get all of the photos we needed!

Photographer tip:

Do not be afraid of rain.
This day it rained the entire time I was there, and it cleared up to be just a very light drizzle for the exact time that we needed for the ceremony, family portraits, wedding party portraits, and bride and groom portraits. Within that short window of time too!
When we have to, CMC is really good at crunching time and making the most of every minute with a couple and their guests being up for the challenge of fast portraits!

I am actually a HUGE fan of how all of the pictures turned out with the rain!
Savannah and Jimmy’s day was already so elaborate and charming, the rain added a signature touch to truly make their day one in a million.

We snagged some bride and groom portraits, and then headed off to the party!

And when I say party, I mean party!!

Savannah and Jimmy’s reception was phenomenal! Everyone had SO much fun, and every inch of the venue was filled with laughter, smiles, dancing, and pure joy!

Is it really a party if the groomsmen aren’t shotgunning a beer or two?
